My company was developing a product they branded with a “CP” abbreviation. I told then to, you know, not do that, but our marketing said they already internally committed and I was making a deal over nothing.

Fortunately the product concept was also dumb and failed miserably before anyone in the industry could point it out.

I also am amazed that IBM branded a whole product line as “SurePOS”.

Point of sale?

Piece of Shit

Well that’s rude, I was just asking a question

chiliedogg ,

PoS is a really common abbreviation for Point of Sale hardware and software.

turmacar ,

This is partly because there is no such thing as a non-POS point of sale system.

Decoy321 ,

The people who picked Point Of Sale as the term for these systems knew exactly what was going to happen. I cannot be convinced otherwise.

Back in my day we called it a cash register, so I can’t disagree.

does frank reynolds work or your company or something?

Etterra ,

Now look, I like chicken parmesan, but I also know better than to abbreviate it. Not everything needs to be given shorthand. But if you’re going to acronymize something, for gawdsake look it up first.

Agent641 ,

Do not look it up.

Etterra ,

Okay bad example.

Oh fuck.

You post in every thread

Cool, that’s just a lie, but ok.

Do you have an example of a post you haven’t posted in?

Sure thing. The one at the very top of Lemmy Shitpost.

And the second one.

lemmy.world/post/18025063

But yes, I do post a lot in communities I moderate and I’m not sure why you would think otherwise.

I am a different person, I just wanted to post that it’s lonely without you in a post

Even if you like the anime, I wouldn’t bother with the real thing. Candlestick Park hasn’t been the same since the Giants stopped playing there.

Carlo ,

I had an urge to make a baseball-related joke about that throwback, but I feel like pro sports are a net drain on society, so I’m just gonna make this dumb meta comment about it. Good one, though.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Don’t feel bad. I actually had to look up who played baseball in Candlestick Park. I just knew the name. I don’t know much about sports.

Clinicallydepressedpoochie ,

Absolutely no one is surprised about the anime version. Why are we like this anime friends?

anyways I’ve heard good things about Cyberpunk, maybe I should start watching it too 🤔

_stranger_ ,

The Netflix show was excellent.

BetaDoggo_ ,

The animation is flashy but the plot and storytelling can’t even compare to the game.

zalgotext , (edited )

I thought the plot and storytelling was heart-wrenching. It’s only like ten episodes where the game is like 60-80 hours of content, and it only follows one specific plot thread, not the dozens in the game. So I feel like it’s unfair to try and draw a one-to-one comparison between the two.

MonkderVierte ,

Meaning it’s mediocre?

umbraroze ,

Cyberpunk Edgerunners (the Netflix anime) is pretty damn great and well worth the watch.

Cyberpunk 2077 is a pretty decent game too. Not a masterpiece it was originally hyped up to be, and a lot of things in the game just painfully remind me of things that other games do better, but it’s still a pretty damn gripping game with pretty incredible atmosphere and style. Probably pretty high in my best games of the decade list.

Lost_My_Mind ,

That title…is…sure something.

@OozingPositron@feddit.cl avatar

If you want to try cp2077 please just pirate it, don’t give them any money.

…why?

A video from three years ago about a game that had an extremely rough, bug-ridden, underwhelming launch.

I haven’t played it, but I understand that it has improved dramatically since then.

At launch I wouldn’t have told anyone to buy No Man Sky, but that game has ALSO gotten significantly better since launch and now I would recommend people buy it.

CD Projekt should have earned enough goodwill from the community at large for us to be willing to forgive their mistakes when they fix them.

saltesc ,

They worked their asses off and only recently called the game “finished”.

It’s testament to how every developer should be. Full-time, aggressive, and reactive development for 3.5 years after the launch date on a singleplayer game. Obviously, it’s actually quite the masterpiece now and very positively reviewed. Definitely recommend it.

cheddar ,
@cheddar@programming.dev avatar

Mate, if you can only answer with a 41 minutes video, you shouldn’t throw such allegations on a text forum. Write at least one paragraph with key points, for Christ’s sake!

But if the game is good enough for 25+ hours of your life, you can’t justify pirating it.

Cd projeckt … particularly GOG has done some absolutely amazing things for pc gamers as a whole. Please don’t pirate cyberpunk.

Man, I could really go for some CP right now, it gets me hot like nothing else! What, you never had Chili Peppers?

Only the Red Hot kind and I’m not that big of a fan.
